Lyrics

Rolling with the punches
Can be a rough, but graceful dance
A higher score is easy sometimes
And a convenient circumstance

You reach new heights
Name in lights
Your entourage has grown
Everybody wants to know
What goes on inside your home
Winning is the greatest feat
The world has ever known
But Losing has a Dignity
All Its Own

That ill-fated reunion
The night you lost in love
You couldn't turn the pages back
What were you thinking of
Voices from those early years
Odd familiar tones
Speaking modern languages
Better left alone
Winning is the greatest feat
The world has ever known, but
Losing has a Dignity
All Its Own

Some of them are lucky
Some of them are smart
Some come home with trophies
Some with broken hearts
Some are bound for glory
Some for the great unknown
The justice in this story
History has shown
Winning is the greatest feat
The world has ever known, but
Losing has a Dignity
All Its Own
